Basic activities in Zoho Connect

Overview
After creating your network, you’re ready to kickstart your Zoho Connect experience. Here’s an overview of the key features to help you make the most of the platform right from the beginning.

 

Writing a conversation  

Tap on the text editor in the Feeds page to create a post.



Using this, you can share your thoughts, keep everyone informed about your ideas, and get valuable feedback from team members.
 

Post activities

  • Reactions- You can react to a post by selecting any of the available emojis. This helps nurture an interactive and encouraging work culture.
  • Comments- Share your thoughts and suggestions under a post as comments.
  • Mentions- Tag someone in posts or comments to notify them about your ideas.

 

Sharing a post

Click the share icon () to send the post to a specific person or a group.
 

Tracking views

Click the eye icon () in the bottom-right corner of the post to view the unique views count followed by the overall views count.


 

Take Notes  

Click the Notes icon () in the bottom-right corner of the post to take quick notes on the topic. These notes can be found associated with the post, making them easy to find.  

 

 

Follow others in your company

Follow coworkers to see their posts in your feeds. You'll be notified whenever they post something.

Go to a person's profile and click Follow to stay up to date with their activities within Connect.

 

Alternatively, hover over the name of the person you'd like to follow. From the pop-up, click Follow.



On following a user, you'll be subscribed to push notifications by default. So, whenever they perform an activity like publishing a post or writing a comment in Connect, you'll receive a notification.

NotesYou can turn off these followed user notifications in the Notification Preferences tab.

 

Joining a Group  

Groups are a great way to foster team discussions; they also double-up as a virtual water cooler for teams to bond over shared interests. Groups come with a set of built-in apps that allow ideas and knowledge-sharing.

How to join a public group

  1. Select Groups in the left menu bar.
  2. Click Public Groups from the left extended menu.
  3. Go to Discover Groups to view groups based on categories like recently created, most active, and most popular.
  4. Hover above the group name and select Join.


 
That's how to get yourself going in a freshly created network. If you need help or want to know more details, contact us at support@zohoconnect.com. We're here to assist!
